(Free Improvisation, Avant-Garde Jazz, Experimental, Ambient Folk, Soundscapes) [WEB] ANIMAL / object - Ten Thousand Animal Group {Bangsnap Records} - 2014, FLAC (tracks), lossless

"We wanted to see what "ANIMAL/object" looked like in Chinese so we went to a calligrapher (actually a panel of 5 calligraphers) at Denver's Dragon Boat Festival. There is no literal translation available so they settled, after much deliberation, on "Ten Thousand Animal Group".. So we decided to use it as the title for our first "guests" album. Welcome the the Ten Thousand Animal Group, friends."
